correct me if im wrong, but their jet engines lasted about 10(?) minutes before it was useless and the pilot would have to eject, however, they would launch it when an enemy air craft was clse to the base and it would reek havoc on the Americans/British/whoever was attacking

They had the plans, just not the bomb and Hitler pulled the plug on it.

Total and utter nonsense, with no basis in fact.

They'll be saying next that the F-15 is based on the Bf 109

I wouldn't say 'based' however alot of the weapons we have now are similier in ways to the ones The germans hhad designed but couldn't build.

You mean like the way the Wright Flyer and the F-15 are similar due to the fact they both have wings and an engine

( don't you hate it when websites go down for a time) I was going to post a website that compared them but it is down for some reason.

However not like that. More of a concept of what the Germans wanted back then and what we have now.
